my 8 week old puppy consumed a lot of rocks and my parents won’t take her to the vet, is there anything i can do from home to insure she’s safe and won’t potentially die?

You can monitor for lethargy, vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite or abdominal pain. Attempts to vomit or straining to defecate are additional symptoms that you should watch out for. Beyond that, there is not much you can do at home. If Piper develops any of the above symptoms, she will need to be examined by your veterinarian.
